Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ee890be3-a1ec-11ed-a81d-001b217b3468 advisory.

- A lack of length validation in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions from 12.4 before 15.6.7, 15.7 before 15.7.6, and 15.8 before 15.8.1 allows an authenticated attacker to create a large Issue description via GraphQL which, when repeatedly requested, saturates CPU usage. This is a medium severity issue (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H, 6.5). It is now mitigated in the latest release and is assigned CVE-2022-3411. (CVE-2022-3411)

- An issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions starting from 14.3 before 15.6.7, all versions starting from 15.7 before 15.7.6, all versions starting from 15.8 before 15.8.1. An attacker may upload a crafted CI job artifact zip file in a project that uses dynamic child pipelines and make a sidekiq job allocate a lot of memory. In GitLab instances where Sidekiq is memory-limited, this may cause Denial of Service. This is a medium severity issue (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L, 4.3). It is now mitigated in the latest release and is assigned CVE-2022-3759. (CVE-2022-3759)

- A Cross Site Request Forgery issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions before 15.6.7, all versions starting from 15.7 before 15.7.6, and all versions starting from 15.8 before 15.8.1.
An attacker could take over a project if an Owner or Maintainer uploads a file to a malicious project.
This is a medium severity issue (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N, 6.4). It is now mitigated in the latest release and is assigned CVE-2022-4138. (CVE-2022-4138)

- An issue has been discovered in GitLab CE/EE affecting all versions starting from 14.0 before 15.6.7, all versions starting from 15.7 before 15.7.6, all versions starting from 15.8 before 15.8.1. It was possible to trigger a DoS attack by uploading a malicious Helm chart. This is a medium severity issue (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L, 4.3). It is now mitigated in the latest release and is assigned CVE-2023-0518. (CVE-2023-0518)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
